LOW-L COMMENT: Sat Jun  3 18:55:36 GMT 1995
Program crashed yesterday at 6/3 0311 ut.  It was writing to drive #1 for
some reason although earlier the same day (local day) it was writing to
drive #0, it normally doesn't switch to a different drive in the middle of
the local day, it had written 100 scans to drive #1.  I have reset the
computer and also plugged in the 486 PC to the same power strip to see if it
crashes when the Low-l PC crashes next time.

I couldn't find a dome position that let light through to MKIII, dPMon, and
guider at the same time.  There is however a particular dome to spar
orientation in which the dome slot transmission box makes contact with the
snout of the MKIII, this happens when the spar is pointing straight up and
the dome is rotated to have the opening facing West.  It is better to point
the dome to the East if needed to illuminate the guider and block the dPMon,
or we might be able to keep rotating the dome to the West a little at a time
keeping the MKIII and the guider illuminated while ignoring the blockage of
light to the dPMon.  The dPMon might be blocked for about 30 minutes or so
around 12:45 HST but it is unavoidable sometimes.  I had to remove the MKIII
O1 to blow off the paint chips that got onto it when the dome to snout
contact occurred.  Everything is back to normal now.

There is a big prominence at PA=100-110, but it is not doing anything
noticeable.
